The basis of the strategy is selling naked, out of the money puts on margin.
There were definitely mistakes made in this process and room for refinement.
For example, there have been some periods of inactivity due to my inability to find adequate return versus risk.
Also included as a loss, I was selling in the money vixy puts as a hedge and did not include the remaining balance of vixy I am holding in the return. I do not feel vixy tracks with volatility in a timely or sufficient manner to be an effective hedge.
There were certainly periods where I was testing my risk tolerance, but due diligence and the ability to roll effectively has built up my confidence that the strategy is not going to bankrupt me lol
